FAUX FUR CHRISTMAS DECOR

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, since we have no place to go, let it snow, let it snow , let it snow!

(written by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne 1945)

We woke up this morning to four degree temperature and a wind chill of - 27 degrees Fahrenheit. Now that's cold !!!! for this girl having moved from the Pacific Northwest where temperatures are very mild in the winter. With that being said, I find it very fitting to continue showing you my winter themed Christmas decorations. In my last post, I showed you the Fur Tree Skirt I made. The tree skirt was cut in a circle leaving quit a bit of fabric around the edges. Faux Fur is perfect for holiday decor; and I thought there is no since in wasting this lovely fabric. It's warm and fuzzy resembling snow and adding a festive design perfect for the season. I decided to make a few additional projects from the fabric.

Here's what I created:

A Faux Fur Pillow

and

A Fur Tree

A Fur Wreath

Fur Topped Burlap Stockings

It was amazing to me, how far I could make a piece of thirteen dollar fabric stretch! Come back to read how I went about making each of these items.

Hi, I'm Joy and I call a parsonage home. I live with my wonderful husband who is a pastor. Together we have been blessed with 6 children. I have a love for decorating and making a house our home. I enjoy sewing up things to improve our home and also scrap-booking our many memories together. Thrift stores and garage sales are places I love to find good bargains. I was a nurse by profession but now have the privilege of being a stay at home mom. I love the Lord and I'm very thankful for His love and the grace He has given to me.
